An introduction to the post-apocalyptic skill of spinning yarn

A workshop from EMF 2024 by Trinn

On Friday May 31, 2024 at in Workshop 1 (NottingHack)

Many know how jumpers are knitted or fabrics are woven, but what happens before that? How do you get from sheep to thread?

In this workshop we will spin our own yarn, talk about the basics of hand spinning and have plenty of space to try things out and ask questions.

We will have wool and some ready-made hand spindles as well as kits so that you can build your own.

Under-16s must be accompanied by an adult, and both must have a ticket for this workshop.
